Guys – we have a game server with the Planet & going through the Global Crossing network has been lag city – at least the last week or so for some of us.

Took a tracert below – but stop #11 is going between the no lag ~ 60 or so (my Qwest network is very steady up to #9) – all the way up to 2000 ms (700 this eve…) or so. Stop # 12 is not as bad – but it’s jumping between 60 and 200 also.

Trace complete.

Has been creating quite a few “what the” moments for a lot of this and wonder if there is a problem with their network right before getting into the Planet network.

Discuss this at planet forums or get a dedicated server from theplanet.com for $50 only
